In Ezekiel 8, we have a
description of sin - “very disgusting things”, even more disgusting
things” (Ezekiel 8:6,9,13,17). When we read such “bad news”, we wonder,
“Is there good news?” The answer of God’s Word is “Yes”! God does not
leave us in our sin. He sends His Son to be our Saviour. This is the
Good News, for which the prophets paved the way. Their ministry exposed
sin, so that sinners might see their need of the Saviour.
If
holiness is to be preserved, there must be a divine judgment upon sin (Ezekiel 9.
We cannot grow in our love for God, if we continue to have love, in our
hearts, for the ways of the world. “Abba, Father, let me be Yours and
Yours alone” (Dave Bilbrough, Mission Praise, 3).
